A functional acknowledgement is a receipt issued by the receiver in response to a transaction sent by a trading partner. This receipt provides the sender (trading partner) with confirmation that their transaction, sent via integrator.io, has been received. The main purpose of the functional acknowledgement (EDI transaction 997) is to reliably confirm the integrity and successful delivery of EDI transactions between trading partners.
A functional acknowledgement includes details such as:
-
Sender and receiver identification
-
Control numbers
-
Date and time of receipt
-
The Status code indicates the transmission's outcome, which can vary depending on the EDI standards, such as ANSI X12 or EDIFACT.
Once the EDI file sent by the trading partner is verified against the file definition rules during export, the verification result must be used as input for import processing. This process generates and sends the Functional Acknowledgement (FA) back to the originator of the EDI file.
